A deadly discovery

Book
In the shadow of Lewes Castle lies buried an ancient tablet. Hours after discovering it, dashing local archaeologist Gideon Rivers is dead. Writer Virginia Woolf and her artist sister, Vanessa, both know firsthand that it doesn't take much to cause a stir in town. And when Gideon returned home from a dig in Syria with a glamorous Parisian heiress on his arm, all eyes were on him. But who would have conspired to murder such a charming young man? There are more suspects in his circle than it first seems: an ambitious fiancee, a jealous best friend, and a string of scorned former lovers. With the police chasing false leads and the murderer hunting down a second victim, one far closer to home, Ginny and Nessa are forced to take investigations into their own hands. Solving this mystery calls for a little creativity.
